***Q & A***
Q: WHATS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CONCRETE AND CEMENT?
A: Cement is a byproduct of concrete. Concrete is cheaper but requires extra work. You will need to remove the rocks from the concrete before using. Cement is ready to go, but more expensive. Cement also dries faster than concrete.
Q: CAN I USE MICA?
A: Yes! However it will not give you vibrant colors.
Q: HOW CAN I GET MY VESSEL SUPER WHITE?
A: Using a specialized pottery base is the best way to get a white vessel, however it is costly. It is cheaper to use the white powder from concreteconcrete.com — If you are interested in the specialized white plaster base, you can find it here: https://amzn.to/31Yk8Ji
Q: Is concrete better than cement? What about grey matter?
A: Grey matter is easier to use and has less of a chance of getting air pockets or bubbles, and it’s much stronger than concrete or cement (1000x!) but it is more expensive. I personally prefer cement over concrete. If cost isn’t an issue, I would use grey matter.
Q: HOW MUCH DOES YOUR VESSEL WEIGH?
A: 3 lbs for just the vessel, not including wax, oil or wick.
Q: WHAT ARE THE BEST TYPE OF MOLDS?
A: Thick ones! It’s important to pick a mold with thicker walls. If you are using thin resin molds, you may run into the issue of your vessel over heating once the candle is burning. The thicker the candle vessel wall, the better! Try to find molds that have a case around them as well, so the mold retains its shape better. Resin molds are difficult to demold, so I prefer molds with a softer silicone.
*INSTRUCTIONS*
Add 1 tablespoon of plaster of Paris to 1 solo cup filled at 75% capacity with cement or concrete. Add color if desired. Add water gradually and slowly and stir mixture until it reaches a pancake batter consistency. Pour into mold and follow up with swirling water based acrylic paint if desired. Demold in 1-4 hours of using cement all + plaster of Paris. Sand bottom of vessel to remove any rough edges. Seal interior with water based polycrylic sealant (two coats). If desired, seal outside of vessel with a sealer. Let rest for 24 hours before pouring a candle inside the vessel.
